Silly Commercials

 If you'd heard me talk about commercials, you've probably heard me talk about how much I hate them.  This isn't going to be a bash session though.  I just wanted to point out some trivial stuff gleaned from a couple.

1) There is an Advil PM commercial.  It advertises, and I'm paraphrasing (pretty faithfully), "With Advil PM, you spend less time awake.  You also spend more time asleep."

So, I get A plus I don't get -A?  That's awesome in two ways that are identical!

2) I saw a commercial for band-aids that were "camouflage."  They had pink, blue, and army green.  I'd just like to point out that since the background of most band-aids is skin, traditional color band-aids are the closest you get to camouflaged (that is, if you're white, and by white, I don't mean like an Irishman who lives in a basement, but you get the idea; I guess it could work for Asians and Latinos as well).

Also, for the record, I hate "So You Think You Can Dance?"

The camouflage Band-Aids are for those special ops guys who wear that camouflage paint. You don't want to paint over an open wound, use the camouflage Band-Aid.

My dad said roughly the same thing about the band-aids. I don't particularly like commercials, but I enjoy the funny ones, and I also enjoy laughing at the stupid mistakes some make (like that Advil commercial).
